		<description>&lt;p&gt;just so we’re clear about this….&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;michigan politicians cut a deal with Obama that gets them credentialled at the coonvention, but does not reflect the will of Michigan voters… is that about it?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And Clinton is saying that the actual voters should be represented, right?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I also like the “no superdelegates” deal…and I’d also get rid of the pledged “PLEOs” while I’m at it.  Just the “district” and “at large” delegates, and as an added bonus, anyone who qualifies as a “superdelegate” should be prohibited from representing Michigan as a district or at-large delegate.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Man, if you think this was a statement that Obama will be strong on accountability, I think you have another thing coming down the road.  This is a completely mealy mouthed bunch of nothing; Obama does not desire to do anything of the sort, he wants to move past it and will do just that if humanly possible.  Go read “The Obama Party” at Digby’s place or Stoller at Open Left.  You’ll see what i am talking about.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;oh, must post this &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/attytood/Barack_on_torture.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;just for fun&lt;/a&gt; now we are all acknowledging obama as the heir aparent;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Obama said that as president he would indeed ask his new Attorney General and his deputies to “immediately review the information that’s already there” and determine if an inquiry is warranted — but he also tread carefully on the issue, in line with his reputation for seeking to bridge the partisan divide. He worried that such a probe could be spun as “a partisan witch hunt.” However, he said that equation changes if there was willful criminality, because “nobody is above the law.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;ooh tastey, from marchy over at the wheel;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;News reports say that Obama will be visiting Michigan on Wednesday–with a visit to the heart of Republican territory in Grand Rapids, and &lt;strong&gt;a visit to the home of the Reagan Democrats in Macomb County&lt;/strong&gt;. I would say that’s a pretty strong signal that the general election campaign started this week&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;we must point out that there can no longer be reagan democrats, that those who voted reagan voted for what he wrought;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a redistribution of wealth from the middle class to the wealthy&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a destruction of the working class, giving the power of the labor force over to their corporate counterparts&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a destruction of our infrastructure&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;there is no longer a such thing as a ”reagan democrat”, those that became one have facilitated the damage that needs now repair&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;And as I continue to look for 2005-2007, every article I run across indictates what doesn’t surprise any of us–they’re virtually all granted same as in the federal court system.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Bushie puppet on the D.C. trial court John D. Bates or Norman duh Bates–they never check out of the Federalist motel do they?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Where are those Bushie documents on the illegal wiretapping ’bout now?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You bein’ tapped and you got no right to see the documents elucidating the criminals what done tapped you ’cause its Nashinul Secoority.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hell wit da ole ACLU.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You don’t even know who made the decision on that opinion–only that Bates signed it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Last year he dismissed Valerie Plame Wilson’s lawsuit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What a pedigree–Bates on the Whitewater Squad along with Amy St. Eve, Jahn, Ewing,Ray, Starr and Bill Duffy.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
